Cute place. Stayed last year and thought it was very sweet. This time hot water was sketchy. Staff were very nice. Old St Pete charm but needs some upgrading.
This is a beautiful hotel. I booked two rooms one for my husband and myself and another room for my parents. Both rooms were clean and very lush. The front desk ladies were so friendly and made great recommendations. We ate at the hotel’s restaurant and the food was amazing. We saw a show on their fourth floor in the grand ballroom which was so fun. For an older hotel everything was so nice. Highly recommend staying here 10 out of 10.
The hotel is boutique and very intimate. The rooftop bar is lovely, has a happy hour, and great views. The hotel is across the street from the pier and all the good restaurants so it’s quite convenient. The staff are super friendly. They do valet so you can get your car easily. My only complaint was that it was too dimly lit. But we would highly recommend.

Nice rooms. Nice staff in great area but no amenities like gym pool. Etc. Also front desk closes at night so lste arrivals is a big hassle.
Great amazing Location. Walk to everything. High quality room. Gets loud at night but that's the night life in area. Rooms not soundproof was a problem. Big issue of mine was no hot water after 10 pm. So didn't have hot shower or face cloth to wash up. But water was fine in morning. My guess is boiler is undersized with all the rooms having deep tubs. Continental breakfast was very minimal and poor options, no staff even bothered to offer service or assistance during it. All things considered ill try the other hotel down the corner next time.
Room was very nice--service was great and so was the location. You could not hear the rooftop club from the room but the walls were thin and the windows seemed single paned--so you could hear those going to and from the club, returning to their rooms, and even their not so loud conversations from the adjoining rooms.
